    Thanks for sharing this experience, the threading mechanism is very similar to my mini Unimat lathe. I think the spindle bearings are worn, you can see the wobble in the workpiece when turning it by hand. Thanks for sharing!

  • @DavoShed
    @DavoShed 4 роки тому +1

    As you turn the chuck by hand it’s stop start stop start.
    Carbide tips hate this and can chip every time the tip stops mid cut.
    You need to buy or make a huge tap wrench. You could cut 80% on the machine and tap the rest.
    You would still need a way to hold the part. I have a gadget here called Super Jaws. It’s basically a floor standing vice made for wood work but hey it can hold steel too. It opens up to probably 400 to 500 mm. I’m sure you could find a cheaper knock off if you wanted.
    Congratulations you got there in the end.
    Very Entertaining :)

    Wow, I was complaining because I was cutting metric thread on an imperial lathe and no reverse on the motor so I was having to run it back by hand. This video made me feel like I had it made. I have since installed a reversing switch on mine so I don't have to reverse it by hand (just yesterday).
    Makes me think of the old saying "I was complaining because I had no shoes, then I met a man with no feet."
    I had to fight my lathe when I got it, the gibs where so bad that any attempt at threading or parting off led to the tool digging into the work and binding the lathe up, but like others have said I believe the chatter on yours is from bearing wear/looseness. Plus any threading using that design is going to allow flex as the chuck/shaft move away from the bearing as well.
    Great video, goes to show that with some determination a person can still get the job done.

    Glad you were able to get the thread working. I have made my share of single point threads for wood lathes, 1in x 8 tpi and 1 1/4in x 8 tpi. I also have the taps. I agree it is not practical to use the tap alone. I do like you did, and use it to clean up the single pointed thread at the end. Still takes a LOT of effort to remove even a couple of thou.
    8 tpi thread depth means a lot of surface for the cutter. I use light passes e.g., 5thou or less to reduce the risk of the insert breaking. Still some insert tips can break.
    Picking up an internal thread is not easy.
    Good job.

      I could see the play from the bearing/shaft as well. I didn't look close enough to tell if they where Babbitt bearing or a bushing. If they are Babbitt then he will need to re-pour/shim and run them in. This design for threading will always cause an issue regardless of the bearings since as the chuck moves away from the bearing it is allowing flex in the shaft.

      @@Rolingmetal I've seen it when you posted it. That radial play measurement wasn't done properly - you need to use force (as to simulate cutting forces). For this size lathe, I'd recommend to chuck up at least 300mm long bar, and to exert force arround 50N on the end of the bar, while measuring the spindle movement. This needs to be done in horizontal and also vertical plane - there should be more wear in vertical plane of the bearing. It wouldn't be very complicated to make new bearings - even with your chinese lathe. Than a bit of scraping, and your lathe will be as good as new.

  • @brucematthews6417
    @brucematthews6417 4 роки тому

    I suspect that the threading pointy bits are snapping off like that due to even just stopping. You might not be turning back but simply stopping means the pressure is shifting away from the proper direction and changes to a straight inwards force that chips away the carbide like a flint worker knaps away flakes of flint just with pressure. For what you're doing with hand turning to thread on the nice old lathe I strongly feel that you would be much better off with HSS tool bits.
    To deal with the boring bar chatter you might want to give a try to using an old two flute end mill as the boring bar. The really high angle back rake might cut more cleanly without the same lifting force which is what is likely causing your chatter. Just angle it slightly so the side doesn't drag in the cut.
    I was in a pinch one day and tried using an old chipped end mill for this and found that it worked so well that now it's a regular tool I use a lot. And with the flex in the Karger's head shaft due to the fairly small size and likely some play in the head stock plain bearings anything that you do to reduce the load of a cut is going to pay back as reduced or avoided chatter.

    Maybe using a more viscous lubricant in these hydrodynamic bearings provides greater counterforce while cutting and accommodates an enlarged bearinggap.

    and maybe minimizing spindle forces by using sharper tools or working with the inertia of any parts can help keeping your machine under control.

      @@Rolingmetal At one workplace we used a thick wayoil, almost syrup like oil for punchingtools in tough materials like stainless steels and copper. We abused a small old lathe for sanding etc.. I often cleaned it and used a thin oil to enhance the flushing effect. Then i tried out the thick oil and the tailstock would glide off the back. It also made a great difference on vises.

    Pretty interesting stuff... But I'm fairly sure that you are using the lathe in a way it's not meant to be used. That lathe doesn't seem to have conical bearings for heavy duty use, it's more like a vertical drill. That moving spindle is neat and useful but it can't handle heavy weights. Your chuck seems way too big to my eyes. Also, because the bearings are't conical, they can't be tightened when they wear. I would use a heavier lathe for normal turning and this one for more specific tasks like threading. Just my two cents but I'd go mad with all that chatter 😖

    I think your spindel shaft og bearings are worn. At 14:20 you can clearly see movement in the spindle.
    This May also be the Main reason for your chatter issues.

    Your spindle bearings are toast, mate. Possibly not unrelated to running massively oversized chucks. Cushman's a good name brand chuck, even second hand with miles on the clock, but you'd almost certainly be better served with a 100 or maybe 160 chinesium 4-jaw.

      @@Rolingmetal At several points in this video, there is visible movement of either the spindle relative to the tool, or perhaps the tool relative to the spindle. The latter might be an optical illusion due to the camera being mounted on the cross slide. Which it was, can be cleared up by mounting the camera on the lathe bed and repeating a similar cut (with a busted tip, because it's gonna bust the tool*).
      Otherwise, mount yourself a 50 cm or so bar of fairly hefty craptonium in the chuck, shove an indicator on the chuck body, and gronk on the end of the bar, see what your radial play is. If you can get more than a couple of hundredths of a millimetre, your journals need adjustment / re-scraping.
      Excessive radial play will automatically translate to vibration, a difficulty getting any sort of decent surface finish, and a lot of broken carbide. These are, I believe, symptoms you're seeing.
      * Carbide reacts really badly to the cut going static, you'd probably have got far better results - i.e. no tip breakages - with an HSS tool.
